Открою тебе секрет, тогда это было неебически много, т.к. элементарно не было ничего что много весило, ни цветных растровых изображений высокого разрешения, ни полифонического звука, ни тяжеловесных программ, даже с GUI практически не заморачивались, так что для кода этого было более чем достаточно.

Вы, уважаемый, путаете причину со следствием. Именно потому не было ничего тяжёлого, что его негде было хранить, нечем выполнять, не на чем показывать пользователю.

Я как бы вообще не называл причину столь малых обьёмов памяти, я все го лишь привел сравнение с потребностями ПК того времени. В первую очередь не было ничего тяжелого потому что не хватало вычислительных мощностей для обработки, хранение тут сыграло последнюю роль.

За 35 лет много изменилось и цены упали с 9200$ за 1мб до 0,00003$.
Ну и не стоит путать флеш накопители с HDD.

если еще учесть инфляцию то цена будет еще меньше

хуле далеко ходить? Классе в 9м (2004г) первый раз увидел ЮСБ флешку на 16мб, и даже не с первого раза поняд что это. ну и реактор познавательный.
История
Самые первые USB-флеш-накопители (или просто флешки) появились в 2000 году. Их изобрели сотрудники израильской компании M-Systems Амир Баном. Дов Моран и Оран Огдан. В апреле 1999 года в США был зарегистрирован патент на флешку, а в сентябре 2000 года был представлен и сам накопитель.
